Developed and refined through seasons of British Superbike competition and the Isle of Man TT, it brings genuine championship-level technology to the Ducati Panigale 959 (2016–2019) at a price that makes the upgrade genuinely accessible.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive-way adjustability — compression, rebound, ByPass Valve (BPV), hydraulic preload and length — gives you a suspension set-up tailored to your weight, tyres and riding style without compromise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32-click compression damping adjustment delivers fine, repeatable control over how the shock absorbs bumps and braking forces.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e32-click rebound damping adjustment lets you dial in exactly how quickly the rear wheel returns to the road after a compression event.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e16-click BPV (ByPass Valve) adjustment refines low-shaft-speed damping independently, dramatically improving tyre feedback and rear-end grip during corner entry and mid-corner.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHydraulic spring preload adjustment — fast, tool-free and accurate — makes corner-by-corner geometry changes practical in a paddock or garage setting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCNC-machined components throughout ensure consistent tolerances, long service life and resistance to the lateral loads generated under hard acceleration.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDDS technology includes mounting points for a potentiometer, making data logging and electronics integration straightforward for those running AiM or similar systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRace Pedigree, Road-Ready Versatility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eK-Tech engineered the DDS Pro in close collaboration with British Superbike and Isle of Man TT teams, where suspension settings change between sessions and reliability is non-negotiable. Every adjustment range is wide enough for the track yet fine enough for everyday road use — you do not need a suspension technician present every time you change your set-up. The 55–155 spring range means the correct spring rate for your bodyweight is almost certainly available, and swapping springs requires no specialist equipment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePrecision Engineering\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 35 mm RCU body and 12 mm RCU rod are sized to provide the stiffness-to-weight balance suited to the Panigale 959 chassis. The 65 mm stroke and 310 mm eye-to-eye length (with a SKU tolerance of -6\/+6 mm) are matched specifically to the OEM mounting geometry of the 959, so fitment is straightforward. Both upper and lower mounts are eye-type, 23 mm wide with a 10 mm bolt diameter, compatible with the standard Ducati hardware. The factory-recommended starting settings — 12 clicks compression, 12 clicks rebound, 16 mm preload and 8 BPV clicks — give you an excellent baseline from which to begin fine-tuning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis shock absorber is a direct replacement for the following model:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDucati Panigale 959 — model years 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires specialist tools and techniques.
